Elizabeth Olsen’s character in Oldboy is part of a big twist—one on par with The Sixth Sense and The Usual Suspects. Besides starring in the Spike Lee film, she’s also wrapping up a stint Off Broadway in Romeo and Juliet, and gearing up for Joss Whedon’s newest Avengers flick, where she plays the dangerously sexy Wanda, otherwise known as the Scarlet Witch. In between all those projects, Olsen chatted with ELLE while noshing on hummus—and warning against the dangers of octopus.

Hi!

[Eating hummus] Hi! I’m starving! But I’ll stop. It’s rude.

Seriously, keep eating! You’re on a tight schedule, and when are you going to have a chance to eat later? And you’re eating healthy. If you were shoving cake in your mouth…

You’d be concerned? [Mimes stuffing a big piece of cake in her mouth and pretends to talk with her mouth full] Mmmawwaahaammmm…. [Laughs]

‘Oldboy’ is actually a remake of a Korean cult classic, and it featured an infamous scene where the main character ate a live octopus.

And it was never going to be in the movie, although we look at an octopus, and people who know this movie might think maybe we’ll indulge, but we’re not going to. We just move on, and let it be.

If all were right with the world, Elizabeth Olsen would be an Academy Award winner by now. As a scarred ex-cult member in 2011’s Martha Marcy May Marlene, Olsen (the younger sister of Mary Kate and Ashley) gave one of the finest breakthrough performances in recent memory, conveying a fractured psyche with eerie believability. The turn didn’t land Olsen a Best Actress nod, but it did open a great many doors for the 22-year-old, who has since played more beautiful-yet-troubled women in both last year’s Silent House and the newly released Oldboy—a remake of 2003’s South Korean cult classic. Directed by Spike Lee, the new film casts Olsen as Marie, a social worker who forms a bond with Joe Doucette (Josh Brolin), a rough-and-tough, long-imprisoned antihero who, as anyone who has seen the original knows, is tied to a horror house of unsettling secrets. Sitting down with Details at New York City’s Conrad Hotel, Olsen dished on the virtues of remakes, why fashion is tougher than film, and how she feels about nude scenes.

DETAILS: Was it a difficult decision to say, “Yes, I’m going to plunge into this edgy world of Oldboy?”

ELIZABETH OLSEN: I love how every time I talk about a movie with people, they assume that I was offered a part. [Laughs] I tried to get this job. I didn’t audition, because they didn’t ask me to, but I would have. I read the script, and it was my first experience with the story, and then I saw the [original] movie the same day. And I loved it. I was just like, “This is crazy. This is heart-wrenching. This is awful.” I never knew it was going to go where it ends up going.
